BENJAMIN L. ROBINSON
The subject of this sketch is a production of the third generation, the progenitors of where have pioneered their settlement to their better and happier home. Alex, the grandparent, was among the first settlers to clear a spot, and erect a cabin in the limits of Union County. The exact time of his location is not definitely known. The parents of Benjamin, Alex, Jr., and Edith (Penrose) Robinson, were both natives of Union County, and were widely known and esteemed. Benjamin L., the youngest son, was born on the homestead in Darby Township, in 1859. He was married September 20, 1881, to Miss Sarah, daughter of J. M. Andrews, of this township, of which she is a native. The following year he settled on his present home of eighteen acres, where he is industriously engaged.
